Experimental value of planck's constant

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on the discrepancies between experimental values of Planck's constant and the accepted value. Participants emphasize the importance of understanding experimental error and suggest conducting a thorough error analysis. Factors such as environmental conditions and measurement techniques are highlighted as potential sources of discrepancies. Clarification is sought regarding the specific nature of the question posed about the experimental results. The conversation underscores the necessity of meticulous experimental procedures to minimize errors in scientific measurements.

Can i know what may account for the difference between our experimental value of Planck's constant and the accepted value of it?
Did anything related to the light effect(it surrounding when we doing our experiment)??

I don't understand the question. The accepted value is determined by experimental measurements so they agree within experimental error. What is your question exactly?
 
Are you doing error analysis? I guess you may have to go through the detailed procedure of ur experiment to look for any possible reason that may account for the error, i.e., the surrounding, the ways of measuring and recording, etc.
